The Strip: Things I wish my kids would ask me

Editor's note: Barry Courter has a 24-year-old son who is a college graduate and a 19-year-old daughter who is a freshman in college.

Q: Dad, what's another thing on your do-over list?

A: I wish I had gotten out of the house more and introduced you guys to the great outdoor things that there are to do around here. Actually, I wish I did more of that now. There are so many waterfalls, hiking and biking trails, mountain vistas, swimming holes and beautiful places around here. Not to mention the places with historical significance that are so close by. I guess we traded those adventures for travel sports. We saw lots of hotel rooms and Applebee's instead.
